I have found following information from Wikipedia. Here is the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Insight In 2009, Honda introduced its second-generation Insight based on an all-new, 5-passenger, 5-door, dedicated hybrid platform, which was also later used for the Honda CR-Z. The concept version of the Insight hatchback hybrid electric vehicle had made its public debut at the 2008 Paris Motor Show.[27][28] and its North American debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show.[29] In the US, the new Insight is classified as a compact car based on its interior volume. Honda Insight interior [edit]Fuel efficiency Estimated fuel efficiency according to the U.S. EPA testing methodology is: City 40 mpg-US (5.9 L/100 km; 48 mpg-imp), Highway 43 mpg-US (5.5 L/100 km; 52 mpg-imp), Combined 41 mpg-US (5.7 L/100 km; 49 mpg-imp).[30] Honda UK state that the official UK fuel efficiency data for the Insight SE is: Urban 61.4 mpg-imp (4.60 L/100 km; 51.1 mpg-US), Extra urban 67.3 mpg-imp (4.20 L/100 km; 56.0 mpg-US), Combined 64.2 mpg-imp (4.40 L/100 km; 53.5 mpg-US) and the CO2 emissions rating is: 101 g/km,[31] putting it in the second lowest UK road tax band.[32] [edit]Performance Car and Driver magazine performed a comparison between the 2010 Honda Insight and the 2010 Toyota Prius.[33] In this test, the Insight achieved 0–60 mph in 10.3 seconds (Prius, 10.0 seconds), the quarter mile in 17.9 seconds at 78 mph (Prius, 17.6 at 79 mph), and 70–0 mph braking in 181 feet (Prius, 182 feet). The Insight's average fuel economy during a 600-mile controlled evaluation was 38 mpg (Prius, 42 mpg). Overall, Car and Driver selected the Insight as their preferred vehicle due to its "fun-to-drive" qualities including superior handling, steering, braking, and paddle-shifted transmission. Replacement battery pack As of June 2008 in the U.S., according to Honda, there are fewer than 200 battery failures beyond warranty coverage out of more than 100,000 hybrids sold.[26] As of October 2009, as part of a class-action suit settlement, Honda had extended the warranty of these batteries on cars with up to 157,000 miles (253,000 km) of use, or 10 years, for cars registered in certain warm states only.[citation needed] As of 1 June 2008, the replacement battery costs US$1,968 and installation is around US$900.[26] As of 2008, independent mechanics have been known to replace Insight batteries with either Prius sub-packs or Civic Hybrid subpacks. A US$300 used NiMH battery from another more mass produced HEV can be used to build a replacement Insight battery pack. Other independent mechanics have been reconditioning their old Insight battery packs to correct wear and tear issues. Reconditioning allows correction of some issues at lower cost than rebuilding a replacement pack from other used packs.[citation needed]

thank you!

I'm planing to buy Hybrid car. My budget fit to by Honda insight. But, I have seen lot of Insight cars selling to 3.6M to 4M. Can any one advise me is there any problems associated with this car?
